About Yvonne

She supports those coping with grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem and career concerns.

She is identified by her BACP credential, which denotes her professional registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Yvonne adopts a client-centred way of working.

02

How Yvonne works

Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and move at a pace that feels right. She places strong emphasis on the relationship in the room, aiming to create a warm and honest therapeutic connection. Her practice also draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people understand recurring patterns and feelings rooted in past experiences.

This can be useful for issues such as attachment difficulties, emptiness, identity questions and midlife concerns. Yvonne has six years of experience since beginning practice in 2018. That period of work has included helping people through divorce and separation, workplace stress and multicultural concerns.

She describes her role as walking alongside clients while they make sense of their experiences. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. The model uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

Online support options

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Yvonne combines client-centred work with psychodynamic thinking to support people online. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people set the pace and topics for each session. It is often used for worries about self-esteem, relationship concerns and everyday stress because it centres the person’s own experience.

Psychodynamic therapy looks at recurring patterns and how past experiences shape present feelings and relationships. A psychodynamic lens can help with attachment issues, feelings of emptiness, midlife questions and repeated interpersonal difficulties by bringing clearer understanding to those patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. Yvonne will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and she will adapt the balance of client-centred and psychodynamic ideas in collaboration with the person. This helps ensure therapy matches changing needs over time.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is wanted. Phone sessions can be easier if bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or need brief, frequent contact. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and daily life while accessing registered or accredited professionals.
